Hello guys,
It's me again. I have compiled a brand new list of headphones under $100 dollars that I plan to buy. Here's the thing. I am not really planning on buying an amplifier because i think it is going to go way over my budget. I plan on connecting these headphones to mostly my computer's sound card and occassionally to my IPOD. (Is that okay?) I hope I am not limiting the potential of these headphones. Well here are the headphones that I have in mind:
1. Grado SR-80
2. Sennheiser HD 555
3. Alessandro MS-1
4. Equation RP-21
5. Denon AD-1000K
6. Audio Technica ATH-ES7
All of these headphones are under the $100 mark because that's my budget! What I'm looking for is entirely Performance. Comfort is a factor, but I think I am looking for the thrill. The number one thing that i will be doing is listening to Music (i listen to all kinds, trance, r&b, rap, pop, alternative, a little rock, etc). The second thing i will be doing is play a little bit of gaming (something that will give me good accuracy on where my opponents will be). Thirdly i will watch some movies occasionally.
If you guys have any additions, please let me know, but what im really aiming for is your VOTE ON MY POLL! Thanks guys!! If you guys decide to let me know what I should get, please give me a reason because I have never tested or heard any of these headphones in real life. Thanks
The thing I am most worried about is how the performance will be limited without a personalized AMP. So I guess my question here is what here will work best without a headphone AMP?
